Page 16, Section 4 Operations of the OPM will be amended as follows.
EQUIPMENT PROTECTION STANDARDS
BACKPLATES
1.It is compulsory for all PG students under instruction and PG tandem passengers to use harnesses and carry back protection to the NZHGPA approved certification.
2. NZHGPA approved harnesses include harnesses certified by the DHV and harnesses certified to LTF standard.
3. The back protection / harness combination must be fit for purpose, used as specifically designed and intended by the manufacturer without any modifications and as presented for certification testing.
4. For student harnesses, the back protection must extend continuously from under the pilot / passengers thigh to extensively cover the back up to the shoulder region. This applies to both airbag and foam based back protection.
5. In situations where back protection use may result in subsequent endangerment such as tow operations over water, specific dispensation may be provided by the PG Operations Manager.
